The American Mock Trial Association has changed its official policy to accommodate Jewish students who observe the Sabbath.
The organization's board of directors amended the rules to allow a team to change its trial schedule for the National High School Mock Trial Championship if it conflicts with the religious beliefs of one of its members.
The changes will become effective with the 2010 competition.
